Hey Margaret

I requested a new category above under "Everything Else" for the "Crew of the Norwegian merchant ship Herstein" the FSP explains who they were, I think. https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Space:Crew_of_the_Norwegian_merchant_ship_Herstein.

I'd just like to be able to have them in a separate grouping if I could please. The name/format is up to you

Thank you Amanda
